I'm turning 30 on November 16th!
Honestly, I'm surprised I made it this far.

If you want to get me somethin for the birthmas, here's a Wishlist!
It's an absolute chaotic mishmash of stuff. Most everything is 60 USD or under, but there's a few pricey guys in there.

Today is the CT appointment. Yet another drive down to Detroit. Extra gas funds wouldnt hurt, mostly because gas is back over 3 dollars a gallon again.
With all of my time right now either taking care of mom, long driving days and then my own disabilities forcing me to rest, I cannot stream right now.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Reminder!!

Bluesky has a pronoun labeler you should really use!

Only those who subscribe to this will see it so you should do that. Don't worry, that's all it does.
Instructions are in the bio/first post.

Barely was able to afford the necesities for a few more days. Now we don't have any money for gas for mom's dr appointments, food, pet food, or critical bills for half of the month. Eveything keeps going up, I'm in severe pain from my own health issues, and none of our family even cares to help.

Yesterday was an adventure. Mom had her consultation with the Anesthesiologist, just to make sure shes safe to be put under for the surgery. And now we have another appointment for an Echocardiogram on the 13th.

All this driving back and forth to Detroit is making my body angy.

I love how I have to cancel all of birthday plans (less than 2 weeks away) because I have to use those funds to get a new phone. Mine's on the verge of being unusable (Severe slow down, keyboard area dying, some apps are borderline unusable due to stuttering/freezing/crashing)

I'm annoyed :^)
November 3, 2025 at 10:34 AM
I'll write up something more comprehensive later, but here's some quick November updates:

-Mom's cancer removal surgery is going to be sometime between the 19 and 25th
-My birthday is on the 16th. I'll be turning 30
-I've been doing a ton of driving & my right arm hates me.

Forced rest for today

PSA: Before this "dislike" thing gets out of hand, because I've seen some very big accounts misinforming people, here's what it actually is.

It's a private option that lets you see less of topics you're not interested in on certain feeds. That's it.

It's not a downvote, thumbs down, etc.

Happy Halloween folks.

Unfortunetly no stream tonight. My health is not where I want it to be to be able to stream tonight.

Barometric migraine and full body fatigue plus intense nightmares to where i cant sleep off the headache are not a fun combo. Pain meds aren't working either.

Bluesky has NO ALGORITHM.
Likes are PRIVATE by default.
If you enjoy someone's content, you've GOT to get used to circulating it.
The point of social media is to be SOCIAL.
It's literally just a 2nd button press; please help artists out by hitting reblog, too! Likes are nice, reblogs get exposure!
Bluesky needs a bit of a culture shift

I'm noticing that engagement has kindof been cratering, but favs haven't. People will fav a post but not comment or repost it, I've noticed this with others as well.

If you like something, spread it! Try commenting to bump it or repost it eh?

Stream's done for the night. My hand is dying, I'm hungry and I have to be up at 10 AM.

I'm gonna go scarf down my food and collapse x3

Still Goin'! Raven's also playing Animal Crossing: New Horizions, and since Mom's not super big into games, we're teaching her along the way! Hooked up the Elgato so you can watch the fun too!

I'm gonna do an evening stream tonight.

I know I haven't streamed in a while, but I need to kick my ass into gear. My mic will be on this time, as I'll have Lorene [Mom] and Raven [Adopted Sister], the other two-thirds of Late Nite Makers, for some company.

Gonna make dinner first tho.
